We’re looking for an Associate Producer to join our Special Features team, where we create high-
production, long-form narrative stories that explore fascinating business topics.

Past examples of these episodes include: What Really Killed Kodak? Disney’s Acquisition of Pixar. Are
the Olympics Worth it? The Cola Wars.

The Special Features Associate Producer supports the creation of long-form narrative podcast
episodes from concept to publication. The role involves working closely with the Special Features
production team to research stories, coordinate and book expert guests, organize recorded
content, and write episode materials for LumiQ’s flagship podcast content.

You are curious: You love going down rabbit holes to understand the full picture and look
at the facts critically from every angle. You have a demonstrated ability to investigate
complex topics (bonus if they’re financial or strategic business concepts)

You are resourceful: The deep dives required to research our stories often involve
information that can’t be found with a simple internet search. You’re able to think outside
the box when it comes to researching and collecting material key to the story.

You are organized and detail oriented: Our narrative episodes have a lot of depth and
complexity and we often have several in production at the same time. This means a lot of
moving pieces at once, so you must be able to balance projects, set and meet clear
deadlines, and clearly communicate project progress.

You have a sense of story: You think critically about story structure and the right way to
make an educational story engaging.

narrative podcast production. Whether you’re just starting out or have worked in the
industry before, you are excited to gain experience in every part of the production process,

Youshould be comfortable sifting through sources such as articles, archival video and audio,research papers, analyses, and financial documents to deepen our understanding of eachepisode's story and learning objectives. You’ll also be synthesizing that information tocreate high level outlines for producers.

Guest booking and communications: We record with 2-5 guests per episode. We strive tofind experts in finance, business, and relevant industries that can effectively speak to thelearnings of each episode. You should feel comfortable reaching out to secure and vetguests. You will be their primary resource for booking outline calls and recording times,shipping microphones, etc.

Selecting tape: You’ll be assisting the producers by organizing, selecting and labelingcompelling and relevant tape from interviews as well as pulling the strongest takes fromthe host’s voicing sessions.

Writing: In post-production, our episodes require a variety of written content. You willsupport producers with crafting things like visual aids and assisting in scripting trailers.
